Back in high school, I was quite shy with people who weren't my friends. The high school’s wrestling coach was also the geometry teacher. This caused a lot of wrestlers missing class and barging into our classroom to hang out and stay out of trouble. One day, seven wrestlers entered excitedly talking about new wrestling uniforms, and how excited they were. When they go over and pull out the uniforms, the whole class is kind of side eyeing them. Even without what I say next, the suits seemed funny. I mean, it’s skin-tight royal blue Spandex with a suspender style top. Already pretty funny. But the wrestlers grab the uniforms and rush out of the room to change in the bathroom, and came back to show them off. Which, is equally hilarious because Spandex shows everything; you could notice every detail. Regardless, we live in a town called Ocean City. It’s often abbreviated as “OC”. On the back of the Spandex uniform, it has Ocean City Men in large letters. Except… they decided on the abbreviation. On the back, it states OC MEN. Which isn’t awful, but then I pronounce it in my mind. OC MEN. Oh—semen. I almost spit out the water I was drinking. I looked around in a panic, trying to find out who I can tell, because I didn’t have any friends to tell in this class. I turned to the girl beside me, and I had no idea who she was and had never talked to her before. I told her what I found and we both cracked up. The whole time she saw me as the quiet teacher’s pet who was shy as hell. The first words out of my mouth were “It says oh semen.” We’ve been best friends for the past seven years.
